Design, analysis and fabrication of "quadcopter, Radio controller" Based on Arduino board

Abstract

This thesis presents an approach concerning the design and implementation of a control system for six degrees of freedom (6DOF) add to four rotors unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), known as a quadcopter. At First, we analyze the different forces acting on the system and aerodynamic effects. Then, a detailed mathematical nonlinear model of the quadcopter be formulated based on Newton-Euler equations. Secondly, we designed moreover developed a transmitter, receiver, and flight controller. On the other hand, the quadcopter already installed, we applied the control system to the flight controller board, the performances of the controller regarding the stability and the tracking references; were tested throughout three degrees of freedom experimental configuration. Finally, a remote-controlled system for a spraying chemical product was designed and installed to the quadcopter.
